-- The latest commercial roofing report from Apex Restoration & Roofing explores the most popular materials for large-span flat roofs, how long they typically last, and cost-effective steps business owners can take to make them last longer. The full report includes detailed information for each of the most popular materials and styles, including TPO, PVC, and modified bitumen.

When properly maintained, the report suggests that commercial roofs can often last up to twice as long, or longer, compared to a similar roof without regular and comprehensive maintenance. Although each material and roofing style has unique needs, this typically includes twice-yearly inspections to check for damage, leaks, and other warning signs, as well as prompt repairs for any complications.
The full report explores options for self-inspections and basic maintenance that can be performed by the business owner or an employee, and suggests professional inspections in the spring and fall to ensure each roof is ready for the changing weather. When performing a self-inspection, the report recommends calling a professional in case of any rips, tears, standing water, or damaged seams.
In areas with extreme weather, such as high winds, tornadoes, blizzards, or heavy hail, experts recommend additional inspections after any severe weather events to ensure the roof is still sealed tightly against leaks. While quick inspections can be done without professional assistance, Apex explains that many problems cannot be detected without specialist equipment.
If there is an area with a suspected leak, Apex Restoration & Roofing inspections will include a comprehensive check with infrared scanning tools to check for hidden moisture that can indicate a problem. Each inspection will also include a full assessment of the eaves and drainage systems, which can easily become clogged and lead to water damage if left unchecked.
Although most maintenance should be left to the professionals, the report does suggest several basic steps that business owners can manage to help maintain their roofs. This includes performing regular spot checks for damage, cleaning up debris on the roof, regularly checking the drainage and scheduling prompt inspections and repairs twice a year, and after major storms.
An excerpt from the full report explains, “Twice a year is the magic number (spring and fall). That way, small issues don’t turn into budget-wrecking repairs. Storm just rolled through? Book an inspection ASAP—wind and hail don’t play fair with TPO membranes.”
